Rosle fruit corer - Just commenting and complaining with a crooked-smile.
I got the fruit corer I ordered, and found that it is quite large, as I must've got confused looking at the sizes, as I see there are 3 sizes at Amazon available. The beat-up tag says for pineapple, so perhaps it is a 'many times returned' item. Looking again at the site, I read a comment about Rosle products which occurs here, the second comment down: http://tinyurl.com/5s2lyk Looking closely at the hard-to-remove sticker ON the corer, which is quite bold in its lettering, I see written "Germany." Looking closer, I see above it on the handle, a see-through very small sticker with tiny letters, 'made in China.' I note that on the Amazon site, it says "Designed and engineered in Germany." :-))) An aside: I've not had a good pineapple since I left Hawaii. It would seem to me that it would be do-able, but obviously not. Maybe they've shipped all the good pineapples to China (where there are plenty of good tools). By Jove, I've got it! Dee Dee |
